The Lake

" A lake is the landscape's most beautiful and expressive feature. It is earth's eye; looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his own nature. The fluviatile trees next the shore are the slender eyelashes which fringe it, and the wooded hills around are its overhanging brows".

About Me

Ninty-nine percent of the photos that you see here are my own photos with the exception of the vintage black and whites that shows family members. These photographs were taken by my father. A big event in Newfoundland contemporary history may be illustrated by a network news photo such as Newfoundland winning the Olympic Gold Medal for Canada in curling. Don't forget to double click on the photos to see a larger version and be sure to expore the monthly archived photos so that you don't miss anything. I have limited the number of images on this page to 25. Therefore the other 150+ photos can be accessed by looking into the monthly archives.
I welcome comments !
